So, you wait until the food dispenser opens and then you directly feed him by hand from the can - into the dispenser or some pot I guess, and not directly into his mouth ;-)
But ok, having something to dictate schedule sounds interesting
My last cat was absolutely not food orientated and got usually fed in the afternoon and evening. So we never had the problem in the morning
But now caring for a stray mother of 2, she is obviously always hungry.
She still waits politely until we’re awake, but going for a piss at 4 is currently the start for a cat party
Mother wants food, little ones want to play/have action
At the moment it still works ok, because I tell her, I’m just to the toilet and it’s too early for food - and I tell her to go eat some dry food until then
But it’s really hard with getting older and needing to go to the toilet in the middle of the night ;-)
Edit: I never had such a dispenser, so I have no clue how they work…sorry, if my questions sound stupid
Not quite. His food dispenser contains dry food. He has that schedule memorized and knows when we generally feed him wet food in relation to his dry food
He begs for wet food because we do feed it to him directly from the can. The food dispenser just teaches him a schedule

Wet food goes in a separate dish
Ah, I see, that answers my original question
Thank you!
